Target Audience
The primary audience for Emergency Response to Domestic Biological Incidents will include administrators, directors, mid-level supervisors, special operations teams, and emergency responders who are assigned to respond to WMD incidents (i.e., police, fire, and emergency management and emergency medical services [EMS] personnel and planners). Further, recognition that a biological incident may not be restricted to the primary audience highlights the need to include public health and medical personnel (e.g., physicians, nurses, and veterinarians). In addition, the course addresses information of value to supervisory and management personnel responsible for developing policies and procedures governing emergency responder actions during biological terrorist incidents.
